Suddenly, it does something very odd: it stands up on its hind legs, and as you watch, its canine form seems to almost flow. Legs lengthen, the thick hair recedes, its snout shortens, and its eyes shift, going from canine viciousness to sharp intelligence. It has changed, subtly and quickly, into a halfling man. You have a strange feeling that if you hadn't been watching the whole process, you might have missed the change.You recognize the man - it is Osafar, a member of the first family to stay behind and sow the farms. He snarls at you, almost wolflike, "I think not, Asveh. You shall never make my people submit." You feel the growing fear in Hesaras as he steps back, away from Osafar.When this situation is resolved, we can move on to the clay.Coreagen:Aesa says, "Yes, yes! I will keep the story! Where shall I put it?"The two brave Sharalik you pointed at nod reverently, and set off the next morning to go exploring. They plan to return to the Sharalik in a week and share what they have found. Meanwhile, Delak goes among the tribe and does his best to teach them how to summon the water. He has only limited success; despite the entire tribe's best efforts, only another half-dozen are able to learn the magic. The rest, even though they are mimicking the proper gestures, rhythm, and chant perfectly, are unable to summon the water. In addition, those that do succeed quickly become fatigued after they summon the water only a few times. One man pushes himself too far, and faints, a feverish sweat glistening on his brow where he lies on the ground. You sense that he is merely sleeping and will recover in several hours, having become extremely exhausted by the magic.Eilil:The Radu elves are quick studies and soon manage to plant a large patch of land near the river with the seeds, about two hundred yards square. You fashion a few basic axes for some of the fishermen, and they pick up the technique, eventually making enough so that the trees are able to be cut down in a reasonable amount of time. However, during the work, one of the elves says, "It is not lack of good shelter that keeps us away during the flood season. When the rains come, the river flows over its banks and fills this entire area to a depth taller than a man's head. We retreat to higher ground to avoid being drowned, although we always find the river plants to have flourished when we return."In response to your words, Alade says, "I am honored, Eilil, to be the first. I shall keep this honor sacred, as you request."</blockquote>
